Satisfaction Rating1/5
Since June 2011, the nastiness has really started. I have hepatitis C and diabetes, and I am as well crippled. They sometimes call 5 times a day, 7 days a week, harassing me. They always have to get all my information every call, even if I am connected to another person. They constantly tell you they could be trying to collect for debt.
Our taxes were late as they are every year. We always pay late fees but have never been to the point of the county having a lien on the house. Last year, I was in the hospital for care at least 5 times. And my dad died in April. I didn't even go to the funeral in Illinois, as it would cost over $2200.00. I had to pay our mortgage ant taxes by June 30. They had sent notes, saying taxes needed to be paid. I explained they would be paid by June 30 in full and also explained hardships.
Some rude man made a nasty remark and had me crying about my dad. When I asked for a supervisor, he hung up. They drop calls all the time. They said they would open an escrow if I didn't pay them by the end of June. I made the first payment on June 6, the other on June 30. I called when I made the first payment and told them they could check with the county tax people. When I paid the last payment, I sent copies of the receipts to them.
In the meantime, they said they paid $2200 in my taxes and that they opened an escrow and I would have an enormous payment now. They also used my house payments toward escrow and now said I owed house payments as well as late fees. So even if I have paid on time, they constantly have me paying late and charging monthly fees as well as ruining my credit.
I explained this was ridiculous! I had paid taxes on time by June 30 and never signed anything that allowed escrow to be opened anyway. I have been arguing my case since July 2011 and have spoken to at least 40 different people with several saying they understood what happened and would get it fixed. I sought legal help who told me to put it in writing and send it and see if it could be fixed. No! They string you along, charge more, and lie more.
Sutter County Tax have no record of any payment from this company on my taxes. The county gave me the name of the company in California that does large tax payments for Nationstar. I called them and was told there is no record that they made a payment on my parcel in July. They showed a payment of less than $1000 for the first installment due in December 2011, and it was made.
When I told them this, I was accused of getting a refund from the county and using it. Then they sent remodification paperwork twice. I finally worked with Hope Solutions, and we agreed the mess needed to be fixed before I went forward. They actually approved us, but we had to stop the process due to the mess.
On a 3-way conference call that was recorded, they lied and couldn't say where the money went in July, have different amounts that don't add up, and were rude again. They wanted to do the remodification and sweep the mess under the rug. That way, they could collect or cover for all the mismanaged money they stole from us. They sent a paper to sign to allow them to open an escrow if I'm late on taxes. I will be seeking legal help again. I hope I can sue them!
